Blash needs to raise immortal hell, players take entirely too many liberties against this team with zero consequences. Our goalies can get bowled over and the goal will stand, knees in the head, illegal hits, star players intentionally targeted and injured. Our heavy hitters are afraid to use their bodies out of fear a suspension will ensue if they do.
It's bulls***.

I'm not been a huge fan but you have to admit that was a slick goal tonight.
I was reading the game recap and it mentioned "We had a talk in here about losing four in a row and we gotta go out there and win some battles," Nyqvist said. "I think that was the biggest thing. We skated hard, we out-battled them and won more pucks and wanted it more, and I thought that showed in the third."
I don't understand why it gets to that point before the team gets motivated. It's not lack of talent, it's not coaching. Blash might be new to the NHL but he's certainly not new to coaching. Hopefully tonight will mark a turnaround, we've all saw losing streaks before and I panic just as much as anyone else.
